Level 42 - Heart On The Line (Skeletal!) Lyrics

Artist: Level 42

Album: Miscellaneous

Genre: Jazz

  • Songwriters: Waliou Jacques Daniel Badarou, Mark King

Win some, lose some
That's the way I play the hand
I get no sense in getting sore

It comes easy or it never comes at all
And I get something off a lesson
That's a lesson to us all

Call a teacher, let him answer if he can
What am I gonna do if I can't take it like a man?
What do they want a boy to do if he's done no wrong?
The only thing he did was lay his heart out on the line

(It's up to me, it's up to me)
(It's up to me, it's up to me)
(It's up to me, it's up to me)
(It's up to me, it's up to me)

(It's up to me, it's up to me)
(It's up to me, it's up to me)
(It's up to me, it's up to me)
(It's up to me, it's up to me)

Inside, outside
Doesn't matter where you're standing
`Cause you always a marked man

Though a crazy in a lazy kind of way
If I don't get up this morning
Well, what difference does it make?

Call a preacher, let him save a drowning man
How can he ever sleep at night with evil all around?
So ring a bell for Brother Al, he never did no wrong
The only thing he did was lay his heart out on the line

(It's up to me, it's up to me)
(It's up to me, it's up to me)
(It's up to me, it's up to me)
(It's up to me, it's up to me)
His heart out on the line

(It's up to me, it's up to me)
(It's up to me, it's up to me)
(It's up to me, it's up to me)
(It's up to me, it's up to me)
His heart out on the line

(It's up to me, it's up to me)
(It's up to me, it's up to me)
(It's up to me, it's up to me)
(It's up to me, it's up to me)

(It's up to me, it's up to me)
(It's up to me, it's up to me)
(It's up to me, it's up to me)
(It's up to me, it's up to me)

When it's good, it's oh, so good
When it's bad, it's better
There is no pain, then there's no gain
When you stand at the center of it all

So could a healer come on down to this great land?
I really don't know what to do, I just don't understand
Let's ring a bell for Brother, man, he never meant no harm
All he had to do was lay his heart out on the line

(It's up to me, it's up to me)
(It's up to me, it's up to me)
(It's up to me, it's up to me)
(It's up to me, it's up to me)
His heart out on the line

(It's up to me, it's up to me)
(It's up to me, it's up to me)
(It's up to me, it's up to me)
(It's up to me, it's up to me)
His heart out on the line

(It's up to me, it's up to me)
(It's up to me, it's up to me)
(It's up to me, it's up to me)
(It's up to me, it's up to me)
His heart out on the line

(It's up to me, it's up to me)
(It's up to me, it's up to me)
(It's up to me, it's up to me)
(It's up to me, it's up to me)

(It's up to me, it's up to me)
(It's up to me, it's up to me)
(It's up to me, it's up to me)
(It's up to me, it's up to me)

(It's up to me, it's up to me)
(It's up to me, it's up to me)
(It's up to me, it's up to me)
(It's up to me, it's up to me)
